2. Okay so, this psycho's got a gun to his head and one of those comical bomb detonators under his arm and he tells you that just because you have a pretty face, he's going to let you pick which country he's going to blow up. Which country are you going to tell him? Okay, now he's asking why.
China, because if we don't get them now they're just going to get us later.

4. Your language teacher from high school decides one day that she's madly in love with you. The only way to get her off your back is recite something dumb you remember from that language class when she tells you she loves you (example: "I love you!" response: "Yo quiero Taco Bell!"). What are you going to say to her? What language are you speaking?
je suis l'anana, et j'ai frappe un mime avec mon bicyclette. [i am the pineapple, and i have hit a mime with my bicycle.] in french.
5. So your kindly, but slightly senile relative who hasn't seen you in ten years wants to give you a little gift just for being so wonderful (and you are wonderful, aren't you?) but they mess up and end up giving you a fifty dollar gift certificate to a place you'd never even breathe the air in.
